MEANT TO BE [s. stan]

iMESSAGES between Anthony Mackie (Mack Attack) & Sebastian Stan (Vanilla Ice)

MACK ATTACK
So
I have to ask...

VANILLA ICE
yeah...

MACK ATTACK
When are you telling Mare???

VANILLA ICE
I don't know.
I've been thinking...

MACK ATTACK
uh oh.
That's never good.

VANILLA ICE
What if Mare getting sick when I was going to tell her was a sign that I shouldn't?

MACK ATTACK
Okay, that was confusing, but now you're just overthinking the situation.

VANILLA ICE
No, but think about it.
I've already questioned if I should.
I really just don't want to ruin this friendship by thinking she's ready for the next step.

MACK ATTACK
THE GIRL LIKES YOU OKAY
SHE LIKES YOU

VANILLA ICE
I feel like that is just a biased opinion.

MACK ATTACK
Definitely not.
I wouldn't set you up for rejection and you know it.
I'm just calling it like I see it.
Wait a minute.
I think I figured it out.

VANILLA ICE
Figured what out?

MACK ATTACK
You keep pushing off this conversation because
you're just too scared shitless that she'll tell you she feels the same.

VANILLA ICE
Uh, you're not really making sense there, Mack.
Wouldn't it be a great thing if she told me she  felt the same?

MACK ATTACK
Every relationship you've been in has either ended in failure because the girl cheated on you or it got too serious and you were afraid of commitment. If Mare and you do work out after you tell her, you're afraid she'll cheat on you or you won't be able to handle the sincerity of this perfect relationship. You don't want to lose her in anyway because you've never loved her like you've loved anyone else.
So there. That's what I mean.

VANILLA ICE
oh my god.
Have you been binge watching Dr. Phil again

MACK ATTACK
😎😎😎
I'm telling you, I call it like I see it.

VANILLA ICE
Maybe you're right.
I just don't want to lose her.

MACK ATTACK
I hate to be blunt, but you can't lose what you don't have. I love Mare, she's like my little sister, so I'm going to give it to you straight. Don't tell her anything until you are 110% sure how you feel. I know how she feels about you, so don't tease her with a relationship you're only half in. That wouldn't be fair to either of you.

VANILLA ICE
Okay now you're confusing me.
I thought you wanted me to tell her?

MACK ATTACK
That was before my revelation.
Now, I want you to be sure.

VANILLA ICE
I think you're right.
I love Mare and I don't want to ruin anything by jumping to conclusions.

MACK ATTACK
Good call man. Just give it time.
I am upset, though, that I'm the reason SEABEAR has to wait. 😩

VANILLA ICE
Yeah, me too 😪

MACK ATTACK
Can you do me a favor?

VANILLA ICE
Anything buddy.

MACK ATTACK
Can you not tell anyone that I told you to wait? I think the group (especially Lizzie) would KILL me if they found out.

VANILLA ICE
Understood. 😂
